<p>This macro returns a compile-time constant if its arguments are compile-time constants.</p>

<p>This function might evaluate its arguments multiple times or zero times. Providing arguments that have side effects will result in implementation-specific behavior, and is non-portable.</p>

<p>This macro must expand to a compile-time constant integer.
It is recommended that this value is the maximum size of the output any raw key agreement algorithm supported by the implementation, in bytes. The value must not be smaller than this maximum.</p>
